The Palestinian Government of April 2003 was a Palestinian government from April to September 2003.[1] It was headed by Mahmoud Abbas, the very first Prime Minister of the Palestinian National Authority. The Prime Minister and his government were inaugurated before the Parliament on 29 April.[2]

Abbas already resigned as Prime Minister on 6 September 2003 because of a struggle for power with President Yasser Arafat and the stagnated implementation of the Road map for Peace.[3][4]

After the discharge of the Government in September 2003, Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council Ahmed Qurei first became acting Prime Minister, leading a caretaker government[5] and then became the head of the Emergency government of October 2003.
